I have a query re a lawyer. He was sourced by my sibling to do an urgent will for my late father. We were co executors of the will. The problem with my sibling is that he has been using my father's lawyer himself, against me as there are a lot of problems with the will.
I have emailed the lawyer repeatedly, nicely requesting a copy of my late father's will. He hasn't even replied to my emails at all. I have checked that they have been received.
Question is, aren't I automatically entitled as a co executor of will to have a copy of the will? Shouldn't this lawyer provide courtesy to respond to myself as a co executor?
My other pertinent question is, is this lawyer legally allowed to represent my sibling, given he also drew up the will for my late father?
